25 CENTESIMI

Also this piece was printed with two different stereotypes. The first one has the number "25" at the same distance from the upper label and the lower label and it can be found in 63 samples of the sheet (made by 72 pieces) while the second one has the numbers slightly lowered and the label broken over the number "5", as for the 15 centesimi; it presents in addition a small color trait in the two right lower laurel leaves. The differences are anyway very small and not even mentioned in all the catalogues. This second type can be found in the remaining 9 pieces of the sheet (to be precise, in the last vertical column).
